Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.

Tombstone Humor
These epitaphs are reported to be from actual tombstones...

On the grave of Ezekial Aikle in East Dalhousie Cemetery, Nova Scotia:
Here lies
Ezekial Aikle
Age 102
The Good
Die Young.



In a London, England cemetery:
Ann Mann
Here lies Ann Mann,
Who lived an old maid
But died an old Mann.
Dec. 8, 1767



In a Ribbesford, England, cemetery:
Anna Wallace
The children of Israel wanted bread
And the Lord sent them manna,
Old clerk Wallace wanted a wife,
And the Devil sent him Anna.



Playing with names in a Ruidoso, New Mexico, cemetery:
Here lies
Johnny Yeast
Pardon me
For not rising.



Memory of an accident in a Uniontown, Pennsylvania cemetery:
Here lies the body
of Jonathan Blake
Stepped on the gas
Instead of the brake.



In a Silver City, Nevada, cemetery:
Here lays Butch,
We planted him raw.
He was quick on the trigger,
But slow on the draw.



A widow wrote this epitaph in a Vermont cemetery:
Sacred to the memory of
my husband John Barnes
who died January 3, 1803
His comely young widow, aged 23, has
many qualifications of a good wife, and
yearns to be comforted.



A lawyer's epitaph in England:
Sir John Strange
Here lies an honest lawyer,
And that is Strange.



Someone determined to be anonymous in Stowe, Vermont:
I was somebody.
Who, is no business
Of yours.



Lester Moore was a Wells, Fargo Co. station agent for Naco, Arizona in the cowboy days of the 1880's. He's buried in the Boot Hill Cemetery in Tombstone, Arizona:
Here lies Lester Moore
Four slugs from a .44
No Les No More.



In a Georgia cemetery:
"I told you I was sick!"



John Penny's epitaph in the Wimborne, England, cemetery:
Reader if cash thou art
In want of any
Dig 4 feet deep
And thou wilt find a Penny.



On Margaret Daniels grave at Hollywood Cemetery Richmond, Virginia:
She always said her feet were killing her
but nobody believed her.



In a cemetery in Hartscombe, England:
On the 22nd of June
- Jonathan Fiddle -
Went out of tune.



Anna Hopewell's grave in Enosburg Falls, Vermont has an epitaph that sounds like something from a Three Stooges movie:
Here lies the body of our Anna
Done to death by a banana
It wasn't the fruit that laid her low
But the skin of the thing that made her go.



More fun with names with Owen Moore in Battersea, London, England:
Gone away
Owin' more
Than he could pay.



Someone in Winslow, Maine didn't like Mr. Wood:
In Memory of Beza Wood
Departed this life
Nov. 2, 1837
Aged 45 yrs.
Here lies one Wood
Enclosed in wood
One Wood
Within another.
The outer wood
Is very good:
We cannot praise
The other.



On a grave from the 1880's in Nantucket, Massachusetts:
Under the sod and under the trees
Lies the body of Jonathan Pease.
He is not here, there's only the pod:
Pease shelled out and went to God.



The grave of Ellen Shannon in Girard, Pennsylvania is almost a consumer tip:
Who was fatally burned
March 21, 1870
by the explosion of a lamp
filled with "R.E. Danforth's
Non-Explosive Burning Fluid"



Oops! Harry Edsel Smith of Albany, New York:
Born 1903--Died 1942
Looked up the elevator shaft to see if
the car was on the way down. It was.



In a Thurmont, Maryland, cemetery:
Here lies an Atheist
All dressed up
And no place to go.

Good morning everyboomie. welcome


How is everyone doing today? yay


Great I hope. yes


I think our two nicest days this week, are going to be today, and Friday. Today mostly sunny and 73 degrees, Friday sunny and 67. In between those two days we're in the 80s. cool


I'm tempted to go back to the sod farm today, but there is a lot of water standing today, and I'm afraid it'll be too muddy there. Also I have to do some things in town, like get groceries, and get my taxes filed. yes


So I'll try and do as many things on my to do list as I can today. happydance


I'm still trying to recoup sleep. The storms didn't help. When you have two pups tripping out, it makes for a long night. Missy doesn't even like to sleep in the bed. She sleeps in the living room, but last night she was in bed with me at 2:00 am. lol


Anyway I look forward to the evening and jumping in bed, which is what I'll be doing soon. I hope I don't trip on the way. happydance


Have a happy day everyone. rah

Joe, I hope you can get your errands done and the water recedes and you can get out there!

Found a couple cars yesterday. Looks like it will be a 2016 Hyundai Sante Fe. I hope to be able to get it Wednesday if its still there.

Fun day today. My neighbor lady (best friend) is having her roof replaced after all the rain and wind pretty much tore chunks of it and deposited them all over the place. Roofer guy, also a neighbor, patched it the first rain and then this second high wind episode did it in. We calculated the roof was about 26 years old. It was installed by our neighbor/roofer just after he moved in 2 doors from me and next door to her house. Big trucks there with shingles and guys and all that good stuff. They do GREAT work, usually getting contracts on expensive, exclusive homes, but for 'neighbors', he drops everything and makes sure we get our problems fixed immediately. NICE guy, nice family.

My house is next, well actually my tenant's house. Back house of 2 has about 5 or more shingles that flew off. Roofer knows and will get to patching when he's got time. He's very busy with all the damage in our area. I'm in no hurry. Things will get done. My guess is that roof is from 2002 so it's about 14-15 years into a 30 year guarantee. What fun. Here I thought we never had 'weather' around my house and now I've actually got 'damages'. Wheeeee!
